    I stumbled upon this video because I was interested in a company called Analogue. What they do is make high end retro clone consoles. Like the NES snes Sega Genesis, ect. They use fpgas to make consoles that are the closest 1 to 1 experience with modern tv outputs available, but the cost are high as well. Being a total noob, I was curious as to why, and you do a good job in explaining what fpgas do, so thank you

    Hey, I'm 39 & Sadly, I really don't know how to program😢
    But, I Just wanted to say that This video is truly exceptional & helped me understand something I never thought I could grasp.
    I look forward to watching all your other videos!
    Over the last 5yrs or so Ive been tinkering w/ & some basic stuff like DIY drones, MCU &, Raspberry pi stuff etc...
    Even though a lot of stuff is way over my head, I Just really enjoy trying to absorb any & all tech knowledge & over time I pick up on bits & pieces (on a conceptual basis).
    Thanks again!

      @BillAnt 6 лет назад +1

      You've mentioned that a CPU can only process one command at a time, while that's true, modern multi-core CPU's can do many in parallel, sort of like an FPGA. But of course FPGA's are still very good at huge amounts of parallel data processing. ;)

    "Everything must be made as simple as possible, but not one bit simpler (must be just short of oversimplification)."

  • @HelloKittyFanMan..
    @HelloKittyFanMan.. 4 года назад

    At first I was thinking that FPGAs were the flash version of processors and their instructions. But now I guess that doesn't make sense, because when you think back to how flash stores things, it can only store charges in cells that represent 0s and 1s; but not the tools that those 0s and 1s _go through_ for processing. So then it makes sense that you could not assemble the cells of data in a basic flash storage to become the tools that those bits go through. Right?
    But then that gives rise to the question: What adjustable type of semiconductor-based material _are_ the gates or/and the paths between them made of, as compared to the cells in flash storage?

    Why don't commercialized Processors utilize parallel processing? it is not really a required use-case? Can the multi-core nature of CPU's be used in a parallel manner as apposed to sequential processing to mirror the likes of FPGA's? I'm also interested to see how the FPGA market will adapt to IoT and the off-loading of logic/workloads to cloud based environments.

    • @Nandland
      @Nandland  8 лет назад +2

      +Max Coates Actually that's probably going to happen more. Intel recently purchased #2 FPGA designer Altera. They're planning on releasing CPUs with FPGA logic inside of them for datacenter applications. It's exciting times for FPGAs! I'm not sure how many IoT applications there are for FPGA to be honest. IoT usually requires low-power, background type applications with low throughputs. Also IoT is low cost/high-volume, which isn't necessarily good for FPGA, that's more for a cheap microcontroller.
